Subject: [PATCH] platform/x86: lenovo-wmi-other: fix uninitialized variable in lenovo wmi-other driver
Date: Sun, 26 Apr 2026 18:27:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260426102725.3204-1-cd345al@gmail.com> (raw)

When the flag relax_fan_constraint is set, local variable 'raw'
is never assigned, and lwmi_om_hwmon_write() will pass uninitialized
value to lwmi_om_fan_get_set() resulting in undefined behavior.

This flag allows user to bypass minimum fan RPM divisor rounding,
but assignment to 'raw' only happens in the non-relaxed path.
Fix by defaulting 'raw' to user provided 'val' in the else branch.

Fixes: 51ed34282f63fab5b3996477cc56135eb4de5284
